In this, his fifth book, Hilton talks us through the process of propagation and explains all the necessary techniques, from the very simplest to more complex methods, such as air layering and grafting. He describes exactly which method to use for different types of plant, and lists the tools essential for the process. In Hilton''s own words: “You hear so much about plant ‘parenthood’, but knowing how to propagate and then watching as your little plant takes shape and develops into a full-grown plant is the very definition of this.”","brand":"Ryland, Peters \u0026 Small Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48088054726999,"sku":"9781800653108","price":21.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781800653108.jpg?v=1713544863"},{"product_id":"kew-answers-for-everyday-gardeners-9780711288881","title":"Kew Answers for Everyday Gardeners","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNever find yourself stuck for gardening advice again with this handy and informative book, packed with advice from the experts at Kew Gardens.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKew Answers for Everyday Gardeners \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003esolves all your gardening conundrums\u003c\/b\u003e, from pest control to pruning, and wildlife to weather management, with a series of 100 questions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePolly Stevens, manager of decorative displays at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew shares her answers to the questions she gets asked most by visitors to the gardens – from \u003cb\u003epest control to wildlife care, planting advice to pruning\u003c\/b\u003e.

Globally, gardens have inspired, comforted, and sustained people from all walks of life, and since the Garden of Eden many iconic gardens have inspired great artists, poets, musicians, and writers.
